SUITE FOR SUMMER by Robyn Burland

Directed by Leigh Hile

The New Play Development Series presented:"AMERICAN WOMEN" — a series of new play readings by female playwrights about America

What happens when soccer moms fantasize about the young lifeguard at the pool, a husband wants to sleep with his best friend's wife, and a rich father-in-law calls the shots? Suite for Summer is a twisted tale of suburbia gone wrong, where boredom prevails, desire escalates, and honor no longer has a place.
